Not exactly "Springers" but I do have a crazy aunt that'll be on one of those Dr. Phil pack rat shows.  She never throws anything out, plus she has about 20 cats.

I'm sure my uncle is going to come home from work one day and find that she was trapped beneath a pile of junk and the cats have gnawed half her face off.

My other family is normal.  Really.  I swear.

I couldn't resist choice #3.  But anywho, I have a few extended family members like that, and I still don't know exactly how the hell I'm related to any of them!  I think it stemmed from my great-grandfather's siblings.  I know he lost a sister in the 1920s flu epidemic, and her husband re-married.  That brought in an entire new part to and already large family...but it's not that simple, there's something else I'm missing that I can't even try to figure out.  My grandfather was the walking encyclopedia with the family tree, but I'm lost from there.

An  old bowling friend broke off his engagement to get together with her mother. They are now married and he now can say he slept with his step daugher. Plus she has a half brother now.

Just typing this I think I threw up a little.

My family is anything but normal but I have to tell you about a friend of mine.

He married a girl who had two kids from her first marrage.  She left my friend for his best friend who happens to be her first husband's brother.  She now has a kid with the new boyfriend so her youngest son is half brother/half cousin with his two oldest siblings.  I bet Easter at their house was a blast!

OK. I have the biggest Springer story ever!

Here are the names just so you can keep them straight. (don't worry, they don't know about faniq so they won't see this)

Uncle Bill

Aunt Bunny

Uncle Bill's and Aunt Bunny's son Billy

Billy's wife Janet.

OK. Take a deep breath.

Bill and Bunny have been married for 30 years. Their son, Billy, started dating Janet in 6th grade (he's 27 now). Janet gave birth to her and Billy's son about 6 years ago. A year later, there were rumors that Janet and Uncle bill were fooling around. Then Janet got pregnant, and it was Uncle Bill's (looks EXACTLY like him). She got pregnant again, and told Billy that he had to marry her. So 1 month before the wedding, she gave birth to ANOTHER child that looks like Uncle Bill. So at the wedding (which I refused to attent), WHICH WAS BEING VIDEO TAPED, a fight broke out between Janet's brother and Uncle Bill. Janet ran over and yelled at Uncle Bill "Leave my brother alone or I'll take your a$$ to court for child support!" WOW. My poor cousin Billy had just married this girl, and to have her yell that to HIS DAD!!!!  Right then, most people got up and left! This is my hilbilly part of the family!
